Before their flight to Singapore, the Smart Omega esports athletes and coaching staff made their first-ever courtesy call with Philippines Sports Commission (PSC) chairman Butch Ramirez.

“After the Southeast Asian Games, I realized that esports has a tremendous impact in sports globally, and in the country. Philippine esports has a big potential to be at par with international esports, and we are very happy about the development.”

 

“I believe in the Filipino talent, and I salute Smart for supporting and taking this important role in sports development in the country. On behalf of the government, through the Philippine Sports Commission, I take pride and joy in supporting these young esports athletes. We hope that they achieve good things in Singapore.”

 

– PSC Chairman Ramirez

 

“We have over 43 million gamers in the Philippines, and we want to be able to boost this community. Smart, our parent firm PLDT, and the rest of the MVP Group, are fully behind sports development in the country because we believe that sports plays a vital role in nation-building.”

Ram found his love and appreciation for writing in 2015 having started in the gaming and esports sphere for GG Network. He would then transition to focus more on the world of tech which has also began his journey into learning more about this world. That said though, he still has the mentality of "as long as it works" for his personal gadgets.
